Manning returns as Texas holds off Vanderbilt
"Manning had been injured in Texas' overtime win over Mississippi State and spent the week in concussion protocol. By Friday night, he'd been removed from the team's injury report to the Southeastern Conference and started against the Commodores. Against Vanderbilt, Manning went 25 of 33. Quintrevion Wisner rushed 18 times for 75 yards and a score, and Wingo had two receptions for 89 yards for Texas (7-2, 4-1 SEC)."
"His first throw of the game was a short toss to Wingo, who broke two tackles and was off on a sprint to the end zone. Manning also connected with C.J. Baxter as Texas built a 24-3 lead in the first half. Manning took a hard hit on his third touchdown pass, this one to Emmett Mosely V, but popped right up and celebrated with his teammates."
Arch Manning returned from a concussion to start and completed 25 of 33 passes for 328 yards and three touchdowns, including a 75-yard scoring connection with Ryan Wingo on the first play. Texas built a 24-3 first-half lead and extended the advantage to 34-10 in the fourth quarter. Vanderbilt staged a late rally behind Diego Pavia, including a touchdown run, a 67-yard pass to Eli Stowers and a final touchdown to Richie Hoskins with 33 seconds left, but an onside kick rolled out of bounds. Quintrevion Wisner rushed for 75 yards and a score. Texas improved to 7-2 (4-1 SEC) and gained momentum with a fourth straight win, remaining in College Football Playoff contention.
